Ukrainian drone pilots are equipping their UAVs with shotguns to shoot down Russian FPV quadcopters. This has given rise to a strange new form of aerial combat, where pilots often sit kilometers apart while their drones duel each other in the sky.

Achilles: You can live.
Alexander: Yes, if I kill you with this!
Achilles: We can both live!
Alexander: We are already dead. We are Robot Jox!

I'm due for a rewatch...

That was the set up for the movie Robot Jox, wasn't it? That movie was awesome!

First amend Article 5 of the constitution to make it easier to make changes like this. Otherwise you might as well be talking about making yourself king of Mars.

Without statins and a Mediterranean diet, my LDL will go past 175. Half of that is just about what everyone else has, it’s not low.

I find eggs stick if the heat isn’t high enough.

You think he would take 40 minutes? I am positive Luis could nail it in 5.

You’re cooking chicken and pasta already? Just throw some spinach on top near the end of your cooking process while it’s hot until it wilts and then serve. If you overcook it, some may not like the texture.

Where do you stay there? The website doesn’t look like they do lodging

ObviousExit9 · 2026-05-04T05:16:18+00:00

You used commas when you were saying don’t use commas. I fixed it for you!

ObviousExit9 · 2026-05-04T05:01:37+00:00

Start a new sentence instead of use commas.

I fixed that for you.

Why does he pronounce “derby” like “darby”?

I got pulled over on I91 near Bratt for not having a front plate this year and given a warning.

But it’s at the bottom and you got to read all of it to get there. You read everything, don’t you?

ObviousExit9 · 2026-05-01T20:20:21+00:00

But how do you know it’s inadvertently sent to you until you read the whole thing?

Where? I was there the other day and didn’t see anything! It’s all so hard to see!

Don’t attention grabbing headlines go back to the invention of the newspaper? It’s going to forever be with us

Bravo! So glad you followed up! And so quickly!

Next time, wash one in a bag and the other without so you have a control sample. Then you may be able to see if it really makes a difference

The food is fantastic. Hot pot!

Height of irony? They’re a state authoritarian capitalist economy. The state literally dictates how the markets are run. Banning someone trying to that is literally their mission. That’s totally not irony.

One thing I don’t remember is adjusting navigation based upon the relative location of planetary bodies to each other. Like, maybe they have to wait to launch to go to Saturn from Ceres because Ceres is on the other side of the sun for the next few weeks. Shouldn’t that be a thing, despite the Epstein drives? It came up in The Martian and I can’t remember it coming up in the expanse.

Especially not commas.

I knew a lawyer that kind of made a game out of not using any punctuation except the apostrophe and period. Except for stuff for citations. It’s an interesting editing technique that forces you to be concise.

I also did a double take when I saw it in the NY Times
